How Do US Toll Free Numbers Work?

US toll-free numbers work by offering callers a free way to reach your business. They simply dial your 1-800 number and get connected to your business - without paying for the call. To call a toll-free number in the United States, just dial "1" followed by the prefix and the phone number.

As a business subscriber, you will have access to an online account management portal to view your usage and customize your toll-free number settings. Incoming calls will route automatically to any destination that you choose.

It doesn’t matter where in the world your business is located. You can use your US phone numbers from any location and forward incoming calls to your headquarters in a different location.

Five Reasons Why Your Business Needs a US Toll Free Number

If you’re not already convinced that a US toll free number is right for your business, then check out these advantages and how they can benefit your company.

1. Boost Customer Satisfaction

There is nothing more frustrating for a long-standing or prospective customer than when they are unable to find your company’s contact information. Consumers don’t have time to track you down. If they can’t find your number, then they will quickly move on to one of your competitors. Once they have left you, they are unlikely to return. With a US toll free number, you can optimize your customer service because your number will be readily available, and someone will always be there to answer calls. That means customers will get the information they need, and they will be able to reach out to you at any time of day or night. And remember, a satisfied customer is a loyal customer.

2. Easy to Remember

If your number is easy to remember, even though your customers may not need it right now, they will recall it when they do need it. A US toll free number is easy to remember because they begin with prefixes like 1-800, 1-888, 1-877, and 1-866. You can also choose a vanity number, such as 1-800 CONTACTS or 1-800 FLOWERS. It is much easier for customers to remember these numbers than it is for them to remember a random stream of digits.

3. Increase your Business’ Credibility

Don’t worry if you’re a small business or a budding entrepreneur, US toll free numbers are not only for global corporations. US virtual numbers can benefit businesses of all sizes. You can be working out of your garage and still have a global business image.

4. Flexible and Scalable

With a US virtual number, your location doesn’t matter at all. Even if you are relocating your company office, your customers will never know. They will still be able to reach you on your US toll free number wherever you go. What’s more, once you invest in a US toll free number, you get to keep it. Even if you decide to change your service provider, you can still port it to your new one.

5. Marketing Support

You may not realize this, but US toll free numbers can help you track your marketing campaigns. All you have to do is use a different number for each of your advertising purposes. For example, you can use one for your website, one for your customer newsletter, one for your billboard. Because all your calls are tracked, you can see which number every call is coming in on. This gives you an easy way to stay on top of your marketing metrics, so you can see at a glance which numbers are pulling in the most leads.
